Perkovich vs. Crouch Debate Recap

Last Monday, CSIS hosted its second in a series of live debates as part of the PONI Debates the Issues project.  George Perkovich, Vice President for Studies at CEIP, took the affirmative and argued that the Obama administration should make the Global Zero vision of a world free of nuclear weapons a central focus of their foreign policy. JD Crouch, Senior Scholar at NIPP, took the negative side. CSIS RA Jessica Yeats moderated.  The audience feedback was strong and many people said the debate did an excellent job delving into some of the important issues of the disarmament debate.  If you couldn't make the event, watch it below:
